16 claims

Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

2

2. The system of claim 1, wherein the resource comprises at least one of: a compute instance, a block storage volume, a file storage resource, a database, a service, or a container.

3

3. The system of claim 1, wherein an access control list for the virtual private cloud network is used to control access to the resource.

4

4. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one computing device is further configured to at least create the subnet in response to receiving, at the cloud provider network, an API request to create the subnet in the radio-based network from a customer account associated with the virtual private cloud network.

5

5. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one computing device is further configured to at least register the identifier of the subscriber identity module in the virtual private cloud network in response to receiving, at the cloud provider network, an API request to register the identifier of the subscriber identity module in the virtual private cloud network.

6

6. The system of claim 1, wherein at least a portion of a core network for the radio-based network is hosted in the cloud provider network.

9

9. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, further comprising assigning a network address from the subnet to the client device on the radio-based network according to a rule set associated with the virtual private cloud network.

10

10. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, further comprising assigning the client device to a network slice of the radio-based network according to a rule set associated with the virtual private cloud network, the network slice being configured to meet a quality-of-service requirement.

11

11. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, further comprising encrypting communications sent to or from the client device via the radio-based network.

12

12. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, further comprising configuring the client device to use an end-to-end encryption scheme when communicating with one or more other network hosts of the virtual private cloud network.

13

13. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, further comprising enabling the client device to communicate with another client device that is on the virtual private cloud network and connected through the radio-based network.

14

14. The computer-implemented method of claim 7, wherein the subscriber identity module is an embedded subscriber identity module (eSIM).

16

16. The system of claim 15, wherein the first subnet corresponds to an availability zone in the cloud provider network, and the second subnet corresponds to a network slice of the radio-based network.

17

17. The system of claim 15, wherein the resource comprises at least one of: a compute instance, a block storage volume, a file storage resource, a database, a service, or a container.

18

18. The system of claim 15, wherein the resource is hosted by a provider substrate extension of the cloud provider network at a cell site of the radio-based network.

19

19. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one computing device is further configured to at least provide a firewall functionality of the virtual private cloud network to the network traffic within the radio-based network.

20

20. The system of claim 15, wherein the at least one computing device is further configured to at least provide end-to-end encryption of the network traffic from the resource to the client device across the virtual private cloud network.
